Objective

To synthesize a Ugi product (incorrect) following the EXPLAN005 by using Phenanthrene-9-carboxaldehyde , tert-butylisocyanide, cyclohexylamine, and 3,4-methylenedioxyphenylacetic acid. The compound will contribute towards a library for Falcipain2 inhibitors.This compunds was ranked 23 in the DEXP014-V1B file from D-EXP014 .

Procedure

As described in Explan005

ID/ Lib Rank	Solvent	Aldehyde	Amine	Carboxylic Acid	Isocyanide	Ppt Yes/No
169/23	Methanol	Phenanthrene-9- carboxaldehyde	cyclohexylamine	3,4 methylenedioxyphenylacetic acid	tert-butylisocyanide	N/A
Quantity	1000uL	0.5mmol, 103.1mg	0.5mmol, 57.2uL (density=0.867g/ml)	0.5mmol, 90.08 mg	0.5mmol, 56.5uL (density=0.735g/ml)

Density information found on the Ugi Chemicals page.

Results

Photos taken directly after all the components were charged and vortexed.

169A (after mixing)

No dissolution could be achieved during the additions even with 30 minutes of vortexing as well as further dilution.

Discussion

All results are recorded Master Table and Workflow Tables

Conclusion

Experiment aborted because a clear solution was never obtained.
